Why My Crush Likes Me

Posted on the 12 August 2013 by Ileodarod @ilevillegas
Bakit di ka crush ng crush mo?Why can't the person you like, like you back?
This is the title of the most recent romantic-comedy movie released in my country. It follows the typical ugly-duckling, turned into a beautiful swan plot. I rarely watch Filipino movies on the big screen but my mom wanted to watch a no-brainer, and a no-brainer movie is what we got.
I found myself yawning over extended drama lines, cringing at the corniness, and wishing that they should have done better with the soundtrack. I did not appreciate Xian Lim's flat notes during his serenades. Don't get me wrong. I also laughed at the jokes and found a few strong points with the cinematography.
But what I couldn't let pass is how they portrayed Kim Chiu when she was supposedly ugly. I get her jologs(dorky) behavior and her thick brows... but the focal point of her ugliness was her HAIR.

Is that the kind of hair that every guy would run away from?
I know lots of girls out there from different ethnicity with hair as curly or even curlier, and I've always thought they were beautiful.
Also, I don't see anything wrong with her original fashion sense here.What's wrong with the colorful skirt, denim vest and printed leggings?
With countless of fashion blogs out there, I thought personal style is more acceptable these days. But I guess that isn't the case as far as movie producers are concerned. 
And I guess because I like printed leggings too, then my crush can't also like me back?

The truth is, my over-sized top isn't that long so I always wear a pair of shorts underneath.

BAKIT CRUSH AKO NG CRUSH KO(Why my crush likes me back)
Despite my love for expressing my personal style, however off it may be, my crush does like me back. And that's for the same reason why I would wear this outfit (and write blog post after blog post despite my imperfect grammar). 
Because I'm not afraid to be me.
And I don't go crushing over jerks who can't handle that.
hype pls?
